" We visited Wasabi Express last weekend. The food was decent, but I found the sushi rolls a bit too creative, straying away from traditional styles. Despite this, the hibachi was quite good, but the wait staff could have been more attentive. The ambiance was nice, but a bit loud for my taste. I enjoyed my meal overall, but it might not be the best place for purists looking for authentic Japanese dishes. " (*Curated Review*)

" Wasabi Express is a delightful find! Their menu is diverse, and the sushi rolls are both creative and delicious. I loved the crab and avocado salad—definitely a fresh twist. While I wouldn’t rate this as the most authentic place, the flavors are well-executed. Our server was friendly and efficient. Will definitely return for another bite! " (*Curated Review*)

" I cannot say enough good things about Wasabi Express! I had an enjoyable experience from the moment I walked in. The staff greeted us warmly, and we were seated right away. The sushi was beautifully presented and tasted divine, especially the spicy tuna roll. The prices are very reasonable for the quality of food you receive. This will definitely be one of my regular spots. " (*Curated Review*)

" Terrible service on my last visit. Waited a long time to order, and the server seemed uninterested in helping us. We finally received our order, and some items were missing which was frustrating, especially since I was craving the hibachi chicken! The food itself was good but I don’t think I’ll come back due to the lack of attention to customers. " (*Curated Review*)

" During my last visit, the experience was disappointing. The waiter seemed overwhelmed and our orders came out wrong multiple times. The food itself was alright, but I expected a better approach to traditional recipes. The overall vibe was nice, but due to the service issues, I may consider giving it another chance just not rushing back. " (*Curated Review*)

" We visited on a Friday night when the restaurant was quite busy. The service was surprisingly fast given the crowd. I loved the shrimp tempura sushi roll. Each bite was an explosion of flavors, showcasing the freshness of ingredients. The server was nice, and I appreciated their split-check policy. Overall, I had a great experience and will recommend this place to friends! " (*Curated Review*)

" Love this restaurant! The energy is always on point, and I really enjoy the sushi and hibachi. The prices are reasonable, especially with the half-off sushi deal! I do sometimes feel that certain sushi options lean towards being fusion rather than strict authenticity. Regardless, you cannot beat the quality for the price. " (*Curated Review*)
